Great speakers for the price.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Since I purchased my Sony speakers I have not had a chance to hook them up yet. I am remodeling my basement. But I am giving them 4 stars because I did listen to them at Best Buy before I purchased them. Also the gentleman that waited on me was so helpful. Thanks to him I know exactly how to set them up for the best quality sound. So as I remodel I can run all my speaker wires exactly where they should be. I am getting anxious to see how they will sound. Very happy with Best Buy so far.

They sound great for my area and perfect for my budget. The handle all the highs perfectly and mids great. They are paired with the Sony Matching Sub.

Great Bookshelf Spearkers.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I currently have a Sony Distribution Receiver. I needed bookshelf size Front Side Speakers. After discussing the different qualities of several speakers and examining the store display models, I opted to go with the Sony which has the proper ranges and works well with my current receiver.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After listening to music, in my office, on bluetooth speakers i forgot how much better music sounded on real speakers. I am back to using my old Denon AVR and these speakers to listen to CDs at work. Maybe I’ll get a turntable next

Awesome speakers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am using these as rear channels in a 5.1 setup and they really do sound good. I have Klipsch r-15m in the front and they match the timbre decently well. They have the three driver system which makes them interesting and gives them a pronounced high sound which I enjoy

Good Quality Speakers
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these two speakers to replace my old small 2 Sony front speakers. They are bigger and sound better than my previous ones but not the best. They look good and can play enough sound just by the two of them for my music pleasure.
